Vietnam Introduces Green Bond Disclosure Handbook

The State Securities Commission of Vietnam (SSC) has introduced a Green Bond Disclosure Handbook to enhance transparency and standardize disclosures.

According to Anna Gibson, climate counsellor at the British Embassy in Hanoi, this handbook will

build investor trust, reduce greenwashing risks, and support the growth of a credible and resilient green finance market in Vietnam

The handbook was introduced at a seminar held by the SSC in collaboration with the British Embassy on October 13.

Vietnam aims to

achieve net-zero emissions by 2050

and green bonds are a key instrument for mobilizing private capital toward environmentally beneficial projects.

The success of green bonds relies on investor confidence in the transparent and effective use of funds, emphasized Gibson.
